Yzerman should give Arizona a call about seeing if they would like a D man with the injuries they have right now. Maatta should work since we aren't playing him.

* I am pathetic, he should call Utah *

I'd be more impressed if he could swing a trade with Arizona. :D

Yeah, we have no idea on how negotiations went down with Ghost, he was likely looking for a raise from his last year's contract and term from SY, once Stevie said no thank you before July 1, I suspect Ghost took the best deal he could with a contender, the deal Ghost signed with the Caines may not have even been extended to the wings, we just don't know.

Not that Gus tickles my fancy at all, but a 2 year deal is easier to manage as yutes start to arrive and plugs depart.

Exactly we more than likely only have to put up with him on TV for 1 year. After that Petry leaves and he can sit in the press box for his final year or ship him out in a deal as a throw in or something.

I get letting Ghost walk due to the combination of $$ and term. I get signing Gus to help fill the PP void. What I don't like is how much run Gus has had through 6 games after playing so poorly. Long-term this season you have to continue trying to work him in, I get that, but he's bad right now. Sit him. Having Edvinsson run a PP right now doesn't exactly thrill me, but give him the PP minutes. Give the ES minutes to AlJo.

I could deal with Gus on the pp, IF Seider is on pp1. I get that they want Gus on the PP, but it should be the scraps left over after Mo is done. I honestly have a feeling they are placating to Kane who has bragged up the passing and playmaking of Gus, none of which we have seen this season. Gus got a rep for being good for 1 season playing with prime Kane, and now we are stuck with them trying to make 6 years ago or whatever it was work.
